That's not a 3rd party for goodness sake! It's iTunes. It says it clearly! My comment asked you if "suggesting that Apple is sending this data to advertisers". iTunes is categorically not a 3rd party. Enough of these fallacies. No-one is apologising for Apple's actions as there nothing to apologise for. You are looking for something that isn't there and it was clear from the onset that this was the case.

  you still seem not getting this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apologetics http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apologetics for me - if it wants to convince me to buy something it's an advertisement - no matter it's third party or not. But as I said before I don't care - my only point is Apple...(trying not to be negative) fanboism level here (HN coments) is exceptional and that's funny :)

    There you go; "fanboism". Took you long enough. You have consistently squirmed around this, but there it is. Oh, I get it. I get that you clearly have an agenda. Edit: Your whole argument revolves around Apple doing something behind our backs; which the blatantly haven't. The warning is there, front and centre. That's not an apology, that's a fact.

      Well...no. Apple is adding online sources to UI more or less same way as Ubuntu (I don't have opinion on whether it's good or not - I find it useless for me on both OSes). My point is: there is an inequality of treating Ubuntu and Apple in HN comments in Apple's favour - that's all.

        Which is kind of a pointless comment to make, isn't it.

        pointless since it's obvious for you ?
